You are truly amazing! I really do love this quilt you are working on now, and I love watching how you do it all! It is very inspiring! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you very much for watching and commenting. I am glad you found it inspiring.
Hey Julie, I can't even imagine why ANYBODY would want to be negative about your videos or work! For me you're the best on the net. I'm loving the sneaky peak you give for this quilt, I cannot wait to see it done. You are an inspiration, please don't stop. Meanwhile, back to me little 331 hexagon project ha ha ha.

Thank you for the kind words and support. I appreciate it.
Your quilts are beautiful and uniquely yours no matter your preference in sewing them
You rock
Thank you very much for the comment and for watching.,
Hi Julie, I’m new at hand sewing and Hexagon Quilting, I’m so happy that I found you as I like the way you sew and explained how to do this kind of Quilting. I’m looking forward to seeing more videos from you, kind regards from a fellow Australian.
Hi Debbie, Thank you for watching and for commenting. I hope that you get something useful from my videos. Thanks. Julie
I can watch you doing this all day, so calming and very useful tips. Thank you for your videos. Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪😊💐
Thank you so much Isabell for the comment and for watching.....I really appreciate it
Loved your videos. Thank you for sharing. I wished I saw your videos before my first Hexie diseaster. I’m going to try again. 🤗
Thank you very much for the comment and for watching and I hope my videos are of some help to you. Julie
You have a great eye for color and design. Thank you for sharing your beautiful work.
Thank you very much Pam but I can't take credit fore the design but I did pick the colours I have used.
It’s very soothing watching you sew. Do it your way Julie, I don’t agree with right and wrong ways it’s what works best for you. Xxx
Thanks Kathy
Beautiful, wonderful work you do on those quilt's.
Thank you very much for the compliment
You make this process look so easy. I like the smaller pieces too. I thought once it would be quicker if I used large papers but found out fast I hated them! They're difficult to hold onto when joining and even basting them is a chore. Lesson learned and money was wasted lol
The largest I have ever done is 1 inch hexagons but half inch is definitely my favourite size. I am trying quarter inch next but they may be too small and fiddly.
Well it seems we both have something to be proud of . My old school friend lives in Brisbane, Australia , she too loves sewing and has done quilts. We are the same age , within a couple of months . We met at school and still write to each other . Carry on with the good work . Take care and stay safe . We are both 80 this year .
Thank you. That is awesome that you have kept in touch with your friend over all those years.
What a wonderful quilt and what an uncomplicated process. You make it look so easy. Thank you
I can't do complicated sewing and I am lucky I discovered hexagons as they are easy to make designs with. Thank you very much for supporting me and my channel.
You are wonderful. I love what you do. Beautiful quilt.
Thank you Margaret fir the comment and for watching
After years of thinking about doing this quilt you have inspired me to get going. Thank you for that.
Thank you very much for the comment and for watching. I am glad you are going to to do this one as it really is a spectacular quilt. Good luck with it.
I make my knots exactly the same way you do at the end my stitching rows. I use the whip stitch to join my hexies. I used to stitch them together the way that you do but I found that my stitching wasn't tight enough. Whatever works and to each their own. Your quilts are lovely! :D
Thank you Debi for taking the time to comment....I appreciate it. Thanks for the compliment and for watching. I agree....each to their own and whatever works for you is good I say.
Very nice work, thanks for this tutorial love it.
Thank you very much.
Your are amazing , I would love to share you on Facebook but don’t know how to but thank you for sharing , stay safe xx
This is beautiful! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you very much Sandi for boith watching and commenting. I really appreciate it
i used to use plasters then found a leather thimble with a piece of metal sewn into it its great and when it gets too floppy as leather stretches i just sew it up a bit tighter ! i have a bent tip on my sewing finger too and it goes numb if i do too many hexi
beautiful quilt by the way, nice to see a different pattern as well 👍i have just finished off a superking 2" hexi 😵💫
Thanks for the thumble tip but I have had no problems with using plasters even though I go through a lot they are worth the cost. My bent fingers dont go numb which is good. Congratualations on finishing you hexagon quilt. Any quilt making is an achievment so well done.
Amazing video.....love you Hexies .....EPP work is so much fun....I’m sharing this on my Facebook page to sharing with my Quilt friends....be safe and keep those bandages close by......quilting is a dangers hobby....😀.....would love to see some of your other EPP work....Please
Thank you Nannett. I will do a video in the near future showing the progress on my current quilt as well as pictures of previous ones.
Beautiful work
Thank you very much for watching and commenting.
Beautiful!!!❤
Thank you very much for watching and commenting.
Thank you for your time . I'm going to do grandmother flower garden quilt I'm looking for a video on how to end the quilt. God bless you and your family . I'm new to your channel
Thank you very much for your comments and for watching. God bless you and yours.
@@juliethornton You’re so welcome I will be looking for your new videos God bless
Wow , fabulous .
Thank you and thanks for watching
@@juliethornton My pleasure . I have two on the go , one 5" squares , machined together and one made of 'hexies' , hand sewn together . I used to make wedding dresses for a particular shop in London , mostly dupion silk , so am using off cuts from them , could'nt NOT use them . ! What you are doing is fabulous , and you have loads of patience . Look forward to seeing more .
Gill you are definitely a better seamstress than I will ever be. I prefer doing hand sewing as using a machine is too quick. Needless to say I have endless amounts of patience. Talking of London....years ago I used to make papier mache tailors dummies for a London company.
Thank you
Now worries Rhonda
I agree with you I don’t think there is a right or wrong way to sew , I think you should do what you think is best , and considering how many quilts you have done ,and the size , I consider you an expert xxx
Thank you very much for the great comments. I appreciate them.
Hello Julie,This quilt is incredible!. Doesn't hurt that it is greens, my favorite color. Did you say you used 1/2 inch hexies? I want you to know I have trouble with my fingers, they are numb all the time. It makes hand stitching rather difficult, but I persevere. You mentioning your arthritis in your fingers was actually encouraging to me to keep on. I LOVE counted cross-stitch and hand piecing and now I am hooked on EPP. So...if you can make those huge 1/2 inch hexagon quilts, I will be most happy making my small cushions and small projects. I have not tackled 1/2 inch but only one time. Just to small. I enjoy 5/8 inch very much. I subscribed and will look forward to seeing more of your wonderful projects in your videos. Take care, be safe. I am in the US in Tennessee. Do you have e-mail? Til next time.
Hi Sherrie. Thank you very much for subscribing and for such a great comment. Yes I do have email and it is clancyscooter@gmail.com and you can contact me there anytime. I wish you luck with your hand sewing especially wirth numb fingers as I know from experience that isn't easy. Thanks again. Julie
Hello there! I have been looking at this pattern for awhile. I love the blue color of the original one, but I wanted a green one. I am not good a matching fabric, but I love the colors of yours. Would you mind if I used the same colors you used in your quilt. I wanted to get your permission. Also I have been watch all your videos and love them! I have learned some new tricks. Keep up the good work and can't wait to see your finished La Passion quilt. Beautiful!
Hi Janice. of course you can use the same colours I did. I love blue but had just done 2 x turquoise based quilts so wanted something different. I am glad my videos have been of some help. Next week I am starting a series of basic hexagon lessons. Good luck doing your La Passion....it is certainly a worthwhile quilt. I will have pics and a video up of the finished patchwork on Thursday.
Hello Julie my name is Rhonda from Young New South Wales just love your video have you got a video of you starting the diamond I know how to do the flower in the middle thank you
I don't have one of starting the diamond but will do a diamond sewing video in the near future....probably on Friday feb 12th. Thanks for watching.
I’m a bit dumb I just want to know how to arrange the diamonds into the diamond thank you for answering my messages I love the way you do things very clear
I am not sure I understand what you want to know....the diamonds are made by just going around layer by layer...the finished diamond is then sewn into the existing gap in the patchwork.
After you see the yellow middle and the dark green hexis then the light green has Three extra hexis added to each end. Then the white hexis just go all around it. But adding those three at each end makes the diamond shape. Did that make sense? ❤️
@rhonda forde
@@smileytow1925 That makes perfect sense. I will have a video going up next Friday on how to sew a diamond. Thanks.
Hi Julie just a question. I am wanting to do a hexie quilt in about four colours, how do you work out how much material you need?
Hi Lorraine. In order to answer your question I would need to know what size hexagons you are going to use and roughly what size the finished quilt will be. Feel free to email me if you prefer....the address is above. Thanks
Hi love could you tell me if using a 1”hex would you use a 2 and a half square piece of material and do you leave it a square or do you cut a round the hexie
Hi Barbara. Thanks again for watching. I don't currently have any 1 inch hexagons but based on the fact that for half inch I use 1 and a half inch squares and for 3/4 inch hexagons I use 2 inch squares I would think that using 2 1/2 inch fabric squares for 1 inch hexagons would be right. I leave them as squares. I have a video on how I cover hexagons and show 1/2 and 3/4 inch hexagons being covered. No need to waste your time cutting the edges as no one will ever see them and it would give you less fabric to use when basting them. I hope this helps.
Do you always sit at a table to stitch?
Thanks for the comment. Yes....I always sit at a table to do any craft / sewing projects including cross-stitching and my EPP and quilts. I just like to have a firm surface to lean on and spread the work out on if need be. Thanks for watching.
How do you put the dim
Do you mean how do I add the diamond to thr rest of the quilt? I have more recent videos on adding a block to a quilt that shows how I do it. Thank you for the comment.
